Used Ford Ka Engine Mount

Yes, the Ford Ka has dedicated engine mounts — rubber and metal bushings that locate the engine and absorb vibration — and they are a genuine serviceable part on all variants of the Ka. Every engine fitted to the Ka (petrol or otherwise) uses its own specific mount arrangement, so when one fails you replace it as a distinct component. Your breaker will want your engine code and registration to supply the correct unit.

The Ford Ka ran in two distinct generations: the Mk1 (original Ka) from 1996 to 2008, and the Mk2 (built on the Fiat 500 platform) from 2008 to 2016. These two generations are completely different in architecture and engine family, so Mk1 mounts will not cross to Mk2 and vice versa. Always confirm with the breaker against your registration and engine code before ordering.

Engine code matters above everything else for Ka engine mounts — it is the single most useful detail you can supply to a breaker. The Mk1 Ka used several different engine codes across its life (including the Endura and Duratec families), and mount design follows the engine, not just the year of the car. You can find your engine code on your V5 registration document or via a VIN check, and providing it to the breaker will get you an accurate match far more reliably than year alone.

Trim level makes no difference to engine mount fitment on the Ford Ka — Studio, Zetec, and Titanium are specification grades that affect interior and exterior features, not the engine or its mounting arrangement. What matters is which engine is fitted, identified by the engine code, along with the generation (Mk1 or Mk2) and whether the gearbox is manual or automatic, as these can influence which mount position you need. If you see a cosmetic difference on a part pulled from a higher-spec car versus your own, that will not affect whether the mount itself fits correctly.

A 2007 Ka is a late Mk1 and a 2009 Ka is an early Mk2 — these are two entirely different vehicles on different platforms with different engines, so the mounts are not interchangeable. The Mk1 ran until 2008 and the Mk2 launched in 2008–2009, making that period a clear generation boundary. Confirm with your breaker using your registration and engine code to ensure you are quoted for the correct generation entirely.

Yes, fuel type can affect mount fitment because it determines which engine is fitted, and different engines have different mounting configurations and positions. The Ford Ka was predominantly petrol across both generations, though the Mk2 did offer a diesel variant; if you have a diesel Ka your engine code will confirm this and you must make sure the breaker supplies a mount matched to that specific engine. Never assume a petrol-engine mount will suit a diesel Ka of the same year, and always quote your engine code and registration to the breaker.
